Recently purchased a Class A gas motorhome, gonna toy buggy and toys. So I'm in the market for a bumper pull car hauler and have some limitations.
Motorhome only has so much balls, need to keep what I tow light.
I will address the rear frame strength, pretty good to start but I will add a couple gussets and X brace to make darn sure.
So one option is just a common short steel 16' car hauler with some decent axles, or spend some more and get an aluminum trailer so save some weight. By just comparing weights list on mfg websites, looks like an aluminum trailer would save me 25% or more in weight. That could be 500lbs. Sure not gonna hurt.
So are the aluminum car haulers holding up? I read stress cracks and all the negatives on line but people only ever bitch on line. I'm sure there are tons of happy peeps out there too.
Would you go aluminum or would you be scared?
Thanks!!
